  1. I'm currently studying research methods in Criminology. I am having a very hard time understanding: Individuals, Groups, Organizations, and Social Constructs which are the different units of analysis that are involved with research methods in criminology. Can anyone help me clarify these terms. Im having a hard time answering these practice scenarios for an exam coming up. 1. Police departments with more police officers employ a larger variety of policing strategies than police departments with fewer police officers. 2. Defendants whose cases are heard in specialized courtrooms (e.g., drug courts, domestic violence courts) are more likely to receive intermediate sanctions. 3. Neighborhoods that are resource-deprived see higher rates of recidivism. 4. Media reports of excessive use of force by police officers more often report incidents involving white officers and minority citizens. 5. The relationship between individuals' disorder perceptions and their health is only mediated by offense-specific fear of crime. 6. Systematic social observation of routine traffic stops has shown that police officer demeanor changes depending on the race of the driver. 7. Universities that have No-Tobacco policies (like ASU) spend less money on employee health care costs. 8. College students who receive one-on-one counseling from an academic advisor are more likely to graduate compared to students who do not. 9. Youth who shop at a particular grocery store are more likely to purchase “impulse items” at the cash register compared to adult shoppers. 10. Facebook publishes more content on crime compared to Twitter.
